Banana Leatherback Hypo Bearded Dragons for Sale – A Sweet Twist of Yellow with Hypo Shine
Looking for a bearded dragon that stops people in their tracks? Meet the Banana Leatherback Hypo Bearded Dragon—a bold, bright, and buttery yellow morph that delivers the looks and the chill attitude.
At Kingsman Exotic Reptiles, our Banana Leatherback Hypo Bearded Dragons for sale are raised in ideal conditions, hand-fed, and handled daily. You’re not just buying a reptile—you’re getting a living piece of golden art.
🍌 What Makes the Banana Leatherback Hypo So Special?
This morph is a triple-gene beauty:
-
Banana Morph – A rare yellow-gold morph that blends soft yellow with cream, often with light citrus or peach undertones.
-
Leatherback Trait – Reduced scale texture that gives the dragon a smoother, glossier look. This trait also enhances color visibility.
-
Hypomelanistic (Hypo) – Reduced black pigmentation for a cleaner, more vivid appearance. Look for the clear nails and pastel accents.
Put those three together, and you’ve got a showstopper. Their color looks like banana taffy under bright light—absolutely unreal in person.
📏 Size, Age & Color Development
We offer Banana Leatherback Hypo dragons in three age brackets:
-
Hatchlings (6–8 weeks) – 5–6″, light yellow base with hints of white or soft cream
-
Juveniles (3–5 months) – 7–11″, brighter and more defined yellow body with smooth leatherback skin
-
Sub-Adults (6–9 months) – 12–16″, bold banana tones, clear nails, and silky appearance from the leatherback trait
💡 Fun Fact: Leatherbacks shed less often and with less mess—bonus points for easy maintenance.
